    Question Will Asian males have any luck??


    国際交流パーティー - Tokyo International Party

    Ever since the introduction of big Scandinavian men during the colonial days, it seems it is slowly getting harder and harder even for Japanese males to get a girl.

    There is always talk of how gorgeous this Asian-chick is but nobody even looks into the Asian-guy. Is it all a matter of wealth? What is the secret?

    Also, I have very rarely hear that Japanese guys dating western girls but I instead I hear western guys dating Asian girls alot more often. Another issue rises that there are more Asian males then Asian females, added with a western competitor makes it near impossible to date asian females.

    Opposite of western men, Western girls ( i.e. that blonde chick ), never dates Asian males for some reason. And to top off this problematic situation, Western girls hates Asians when her dream love is no longer interested in her, but will not even approach an asian male.

    Some arrogant western guys even make a mockery of asian guys on the net by saying things like "a bigger thingy is more important than bigger brains" or something to that effect.

    Why is it impossible, as an asian male to get a girl nowadays?? Why are western girls asexual to all ethnic guys except their own ethnic (preferably anglo and nordic)?? Is it some dominatrix persona they have, such as Eva Braun??

    Maybe things have changed ?

    When I was in Japan, all my Japanese male friends had 2 to 3 girls each. Back than , most succsessful married Japanese men had at least 1 girlfriend on the side. Most non-Japanese males who could not speak pretty good Japanese were stuck with bargirls who spoke hammered English. It seemed good ol Japanese country girls wanted nothing to do with non-Japanese guys.

    Ah... well same here though... Currently, I am away from Asian girls for too long, residing in a WASP town of 100000 population or so, for apprenticeship training.

    Alot of the girls, who are raised in a preppy lifestyle seem to want nothing to do with outsiders like me. They are friendly and I will give them that credit, but in a way it also feels a bit empty.... I can't get close.

    Also reading history from the days when Jim Crow laws are in effect during the very early 1900s where African-Americans are publicly executed from befriending a WASP women, still give me the chills though.....

    At least uncle frank here will have a smaller chance of being lynched then I am.

    First of all, where did you get this notion?

    Secondly, Japanese society works a little differently. Many/Most people don't start dating seriously, if at all, until university, and it's pretty juvenile stuff to watch them going through the motions.

    I found this interesting poll for the "non-asian ladies" in here:

    the results (if you are male, and don't want to pretend to be a non-asian lady and fill in the poll):

    Are you male or female? Your profile lists female, that might be part of your problem.

    I have seen a lot more east-Asian male/cauasian female couples in recent times. It's hard to define and put into words without sounding racist, over-general, etc., because basing anything on race and culture is tricky. I'm half asian, I look .. Hawaiian or something, I'm told. I have a bit of insight into both sides of the coin perhaps. I've dated caucasians and been 'the Asian bf', and I've dated Japanese girls and been 'the gaijin' bf. Overall I just think the more visible a group is and the more accustomed to them people are, the more inter-mingling there will be.

    Interracial couples are increasing across the world, not just the white-Asian dynamic.

    On what data are you basing this observation? It appears you've never been to Japan.
    I live here, and from what I can see, Japanese men aren't having any trouble finding Japanese women.

    The story of white guys always getting Asian chicks and such is VERY over inflated... Don't even pay attention to that.

    Asian, Japanese guys, can get a girl just as much as anyone else can from everything I've seen.

    I think it's a natural attraction on some level because both cultures are so different there is alot of curiosity on both sides. It's not to hard to see why western men are attracted to asian women and vice versa.

    I am white, lacking in blond hair though, but I really like Asian men

    However, sometimes some of the Japanese men I meet (cannot vouch for any others) just are SUCH BIG PAINS that I think that even their own mother does not love them sometimes.

    I friend of mine, very white, very pretty, very blond, had been with her Japanese boyfriend for many now and I do not think that he has many problems now

    I've been here for a couple of days now and although part of what the thread author said seems somewhat true in Japan (ie: not so many asian men with foreign ladies), asian men are quite popular among ladies in EU...(well at least in France and the UK afaik)

    This is mainly thanks to all these Korean dramas and all this stuff, and all this thing about foreigners getting all the girls here isn't that true anymore =)

    Just last saturday we went clubbing and for some reason, my foreign friends couldn't get close to any of the girls there while two of them came to me and tried to make conversation (although they left quickly when they noticed that I couldn't speak japanese).

    Also, I personally am not the picky type and although it would be a big lie to say that appearence doesn't count at all, I would feel bad if I was to date someone only because she's the western/asian type.
    One of the most adventurous things left for us is to go to bed. For no one can lay a hand on our dreams....

    If you can't get a girl, don't just turn around and blame it on the first reason you think of. People tend to do that with their race. It's in your imagination!

    I think most people give you more of a chance than judging you by your race.

    Also, if somebody is petty enough to turn you back because of race then it's their loss. They will experience a limited life if they are like that.

    Japanese girls look sometimes weird to you (if your white) because in their eyes your a 外人 wich has to do with history. Anywayz it is the person not the race or whatever you are imagining. It's just that some people like to have an asian girlfriend/boyfriend or others like european girlfriend/boyfriend other african girlfriend/boyfriend etc... It has to do with the person his/her mind and her/his taste for people. And it has nothing do with races because here in Belgium many Chinese girls have a Belgian boyfriend and reversed also. It's just the person's personal opinion about people.

    RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE .

    Not this again. Just go look in the music section.
    A few thousand ignored female artists topics.
    A bajillion male artist topics full of women swooning over them.

    Japanese guys obviously DO NOT have a hard time getting white girls.
    STOP complaining. You'll have girls drooling over you for the mere fact you're Japanese.

    lol...
    Black guys mock white guys.
    White girls love Black men, cause they are suposely taller, bigger, stronger, well endowed and more muscular, than white men
    Asians girl like white guys...cause they are taller than aisan guys...
    anyways I'm Asian and have no problems getting girls of any race, but then again im half asian...
    at the end of the day its about confidence...

    Like someone else earlier said on these thread, the Japanese girl/gaijin guy couple story is waaaaaayyyyy overinflated. Yes, there are more Japanese girl/foreign guy couple than the Japanese guy/gajin girl counterpart but it is kind of different.

    Looking at it from a gaijin perspective and having lived in Japan quite for some time, I now think that Japanese girls see us Gaijin males with a 'curiosity' way of thinking. Better put, we are more of a novelty than anything else. They might like Gaijin guys a lot but the cultures and personalitites are way different that, after all, these Japanese girls will prefer a Japanese guy than going outside the box dating a foreigner. Most of them think it will be a pain in the back and just stay with what they are used to.

    *lol* It's just bull, I'm all for Asian guys only ATM, nothing else would do and trust me, it's not due to lack of trying from "white nor even black guys"

    How ever I think many Asian guys are very hard to approach ...
    Specially Japanese I would say ...

    ... I don't know why really

    I think asian males have lots of luck. Their eyes are so exotic and handsome.
    I think it would be hard if I tried to approach an asian male because I have light-brown skin
